• The recordable time of movies varies because the camera is equipped with VBR (Variable Bit Rate), which automatically adjusts image quality depending on the shooting scene. When you record a fast-moving subject, the image is clearer but the recordable time is shorter because more memory is required for recording. The recordable time also varies depending on the shooting conditions, the subject or the image quality/size settings.

Notes on using the camera Functions built into this camera

• This manual describes each of the functions of TransferJet compatible/ incompatible devices, 1080 60i-compatible devices and 1080 50i-compatible devices. – To determine whether your camera supports the GPS function, check the model name of your camera. GPS-compatible: DSC-HX100V GPS-incompatible: DSC-HX100 – To check if your camera supports the TransferJet function, and whether it is a 1080 60i-compatible device or 1080 50i-compatible device, check for the following marks on the bottom of the camera. TransferJet-compatible device: (TransferJet) 1080 60i-compatible device: 60i 1080 50i-compatible device: 50i
• This camera is compatible with 1080 60p or 50p-format movies. Unlike standard recording modes up to now, which record in an interlacing method, this camera records using a progressive method. This increases the resolution, and provides a smoother, more realistic image.
• In an airplane, make sure to turn off the camera following cabin announcements.
• Do not watch 3D images shot with this camera for extended periods of time on 3D-compatible monitors.
• When you view 3D images shot with this camera on a 3D-compatible monitor, you may experience discomfort in the form of eye strain, fatigue, or nausea. To prevent these symptoms, we recommend that you take regular breaks. However, you need to determine for yourself the length and frequency of breaks you require, as they vary according to the individual. If you experience any type of discomfort, stop viewing the 3D images until you feel better, and consult a physician as necessary. Also refer to the operating instructions supplied with the device or software you have connected or are using with this camera. Note that a child’s eyesight is still at the development stage (particularly children below the age of 6). Consult a pediatrician or ophthalmologist before letting your child view 3D images, and make sure he/she observes the above precautions when viewing such images. On GPS-compatible devices (DSC-HX100V only)
• Use GPS in accordance with regulations of countries and regions where you use it.
• If you do not record the direction or location information, set [GPS setting] to [Off]. On use and care

Avoid rough handling, disassembling, modifying, physical shock, or impact such as hammering, dropping, or stepping on the product. Be particularly careful of the lens. Notes on recording/playback

• Do not shake or strike the camera. It may cause a malfunction and you may not be able to record images. Furthermore, the recording media may become unusable or image data may be damaged. Do not use/store the camera in the following places
• In an extremely hot, cold or humid place In places such as in a car parked in the sun, the camera body may become deformed and this may cause a malfunction.
• Under direct sunlight or near a heater The camera body may become discolored or deformed, and this may cause a malfunction.
• In a location subject to rocking vibration
• Near a location that generates strong radio waves, emits radiation or is strongly magnetic place. Otherwise, the camera may not properly record or play back images.
• In sandy or dusty places Be careful not to let sand or dust get into the camera. This may cause the camera to malfunction, and in some cases this malfunction cannot be repaired. On carrying Do not sit down in a chair or other place with the camera in the back pocket of your trousers or skirt, as this may cause malfunction or damage the camera. Notes on the LCD screen and lens The LCD screen is manufactured using extremely high-precision technology so over 99.99% of the pixels are operational for effective use. However, some tiny black and/or bright dots (white, red, blue or green) may appear on the LCD screen. These dots are a normal result of the manufacturing process, and do not affect the recording. On camera’s temperature Your camera and battery may get hot due to continuous use, but it is not a malfunction.

On the overheat protection Depending on the camera and battery temperature, you may be unable to record movies or the power may turn off automatically to protect the camera. A message will be displayed on the LCD screen before the power turns off or you can no longer record movies. In this case, leave the power off and wait until the camera and battery temperature goes down. If you turn on the power without letting the camera and battery cool enough, the power may turn off again or you may be unable to record movies. On charging the battery If you charge a battery that has not been used for a long time, you may be unable to charge it to the proper capacity. This is due to the battery characteristics, and is not a malfunction. Charge the battery again. Warning on copyright Television programs, films, videotapes, and other materials may be copyrighted.
